Question How many Email accounts do you have?
I'm interested to see how many email accounts people have, how many of them you regularly use, etc.

I'd also like to hear how many you access via webmail, etc.

I'll go first - I have about 6 or 7 I think: Work, 2 on my ISP, Hotmail, GMail, and a couple of others I cant quite think of at the moment.

Only really use the work and one of the ISP accounts regularly. I used to use Hotmail a lot, but all the Junkmail was annoying me. GMail I use for a specific couple of purposes, other than that I never touch it.



Hecate Guides, but you dont hear me preaching about it! Now p*** off and leave me be.

I have 3 active e-mail accounts, but 5 working e-mail addresses: my work one (that I use for my full-time and part-time job), my personal one (however I got 2 personal e-mail addresses that re-directs to my personal one) and my yahoo account that I use for my writing job

Just the two for me, my work one which is pretty much what I use on a regular basis, and then my personal hotmail account for everything else!

Aims for the year...

70-290 - March - Currently studying
70-291 - June
... hopefully more to follow

8 i can think of.

Work, my very first Yahoo account, hotmail for MS e-learning, G-mail, free one with ISP (which isn't used) and my *main* account with Fastmail which allows multiple domains pointing to your account - very useful!

I'm confused
are we talking addresses or accounts?

That I use
I have three accounts

Gmail
My Domain
Work

There are numerous ones I don't use (for example MSN hotmail account, dont even check it, its 100% spam)
and of the three I have, they span off into hundreds of actual addresses (used mainly for filtering purposes

gmail has no extra addresses, its pure webmail that I use for most things these days

work has a number of aliases and group aliases

my domain has a shed load of aliases, allowing me to filter anything hitting my inbox
I get push email on my phones from work and my domain
and I have an applet for viewing gmail on the move

Regards,

Ryan "Phoenix" Coates MBCS

After looking at this thread I realise I have far too many email addresses.


Ones that I use :

I have 2 for work (one redirects to the other)
I have a personal address at my domain (I have got rid of my mail server so this redirects to a Gmail account)
I have 3 Gmail accounts, 1 is a store so all mail is stored, the second it one I use day to day. The third is for game modding and related forums.

Ones that I don't use:

3 More Gmail accounts setup for various reasons and are generallly just sitting around.
I have about 6 domains that all have a primary address that redirects to me personal one and gmail as above.
I have several ISP accounts again all sitting empty.

I think I am just disorganised, I setup addresses with some great masterplan in mind and then just default back to work, personal and archive store addresses.

I have some for my kids and my family... not sure if those count, especially since my kids are too young to use them, but they're technically "mine".
